Publish DEB and RPM packages as well as binary installers for each
commit that modifies source code. This allows for testing development
code, and makes sure that problems with building binary packages are
noticed early on.
The tools/make-installers script creates command line installers for
Linux/x64 and Linux/arm64 systems using the archives built by the
tools/make-binaries script.
The tools/make-packages script creates DEB and RPM packages for
Linux/x64 and Linux/arm64 systems using the archives built by the
tools/make-binaries script.
The tools/make-binaries script creates self-contained OTP releases for
Linux/x64 and Linux/arm64 systems. All optional ejabberd features are
supported. Erlang/OTP, Elixir, and all dependencies are downloaded and
built from source (using crosstool-NG). The generated binaries depend
on glibc 2.17 or later, all other external libraries are linked
statically.
The script should work on any non-ancient Linux/x64 system and requires
just a few common development tools (to bootstrap crosstool-NG).
The release is installed by creating an "ejabberd" user, extracting the
archive into /opt, and moving the systemd unit (or init script) into
place.
Until now, when stopping the ejabberd container, Erlang is not gracefully
closed, Mnesia is not properly closed... exit code is 137.
With this change, when the container is stopped, Erlang receives the
SIGTERM signal, shutsdown, Mnesia database is properly closed, ...
and exit code is 0.
The old version was:
rebar 3.15.2
and it couldn't work with Erlang/OTP 25
This new version is
rebar 3.18.0
compiled from tag 3.18.0 from
https://github.com/erlang/rebar3
using erlang:22-slim docker image
To compile ejabberd using rebar3 and ancient Erlang 19.3-21.3,
you need a rebar3 binary compiled with an old Erlang.
If your operating system doesn't provide one, you can download
the old one included in ejabberd 21.12, available at:
https://github.com/processone/ejabberd/raw/21.12/rebar3
The old version was:
